I'm trying to run multiple sketches on the same page.

The init script specifies that:

/*
* This code searches for all the <script type="application/processing" target="canvasid">
* in your page and loads each script in the target canvas with the proper id.
* It is useful to smooth the process of adding Processing code in your page and starting
* the Processing.js engine.
*/

When I specify the target canvas of each sketch, it does not work:

<script type="application/processing" target="canvas1">..</script>
<script type="application/processing" target="canvas2">..</script>

<canvas id="canvas1".. />
<canvas id="canvas2".. />

but it isn't working? is this even possible? Any help would be much appreciated. Im trying to have a document with inline canvas elements running a sketches in sync with each other.

Got it working by setting ids for the script and canvas tags:

<script type="application/processing" id="script1">..</script>
<script type="application/processing" id="script2">..</script>

<canvas id="canvas1" width="200px" height="200px"></canvas>
<canvas id="canvas2" width="200px" height="200px"></canvas>
<script>
  canvas1 = document.getElementById("canvas1");
  script1 = document.getElementById("script1").text;
  canvas2 = document.getElementById("canvas2");
  script2 = document.getElementById("script2").text;
  Processing(canvas1, script1);
  Processing(canvas2, script2);
</script>
